What does Brian Dawkins have to do?
Maybe I am overrating him but if all the free safeties I have seen he's right up there. If I take them at their peak and look at all the skills of a free safety, coverages, range, instincts, hitting, smarts, blitzing, tackling, Cover-2 skills, cover -3 of man-free skills, you know all the "stuff".
To me
1 Ed Reed
2 Ronnie Lott (lost speed late)
3 Nolan Cromwell (injured)
4 Brian Dawkins
5 would have to think about because these 4 stand out
Next year Ed Reed is coming up and he's the best FS ever, IMO, and I think he's a 1st balloter,
Dawkins did it all...box, MOF, tackling, blitzing, he was not super consistent at ball hawking like Reed, but far better than most...
I don't get it

So ...
In: Moss, Urlacher, Dawkins, Lewis (haven't seen anything but obviously) and one more -- plus 3 senior/contributors.
Not in: Jacoby, Law, Lynch, Boselli

Based on what I've seen on twitter so far, my updated guess for who will make the Hall of Fame this year: Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, Ray Lewis, Brian Urlacher, Brian Dawkins, Robert Brazile, Jerry Kramer, Bobby Beathard

Re: What does Brian Dawkins have to do?
I said similar on the old forums and most responses said he wasn't a Top 5 all-time safety which was crazy to me. Don't remember you posting on that topic back then but agreed. Arguably the best FS and definitely 'should be' 1st ballot.JohnTurney wrote:Next year Ed Reed is coming up and he's the best FS ever, IMO, and I think he's a 1st balloter,
Re: No linemen?
Looks like T.O. is saying himself that he's in.
That completes the class.

So no linemen (modern era) was correct.
